Mansi Sharma Writer (MA in Mass Communication) Assembly. Since then, World Wildlife Day is observed every year on 03rd March. The day reminds us of the offence against wildlife and the need to fight against the dwindling number of species due to various macroeconomic, environmental and social impacts generated by human. *Wild Life Day*
*2021 Theme of World Wildlife Day*
Due to human activities, the number of wildlife in the world is continuously decreasing. In view of this crisis, "World Wildlife Day" is celebrated every year on 03rd March to raise awareness on the importance of wildlife and flora.
On the occasion of World Wildlife Day, the resolve is to strongly implement commitments based on conservation of various wildlife and vegetation species, their continuous management and future initiatives is reiterated. Every year the theme of this day is different, through which people are made aware to conserve the creatures, species and natural objects that are being extinct from nature. In this sequence, the theme of the year 2021 is 'Forests and livelihoods: Sustaining people and planets'. That is, to keep the earth alive, it is very important to live with humen as well as animals, birds and plants. Today many species of fauna and plants are on the verge of extinction. Therefore, it is our duty to protect the natural splendour of the ecosystem, and to develop a system of co-existence with every living being on earth.
*Objective of this day* The main objective of "World Wildlife Day" is to establish awareness, cooperation and coordination towards conservation of wildlife on a global scale. On this day, various programs are organized around the world to spread awareness about the benefits of wildlife and flora conservation. *When did World Wildlife Day begin*? It was launched on 20th December 2013 by the United Nations General
APRIL 2021 - 003
*Why World Wildlife Day is important*? In recent decades, humen have heavily exploited natural resources for their needs, due to this deforestation many large forests are on the verge of extinction. At the same time, the prey of fauna has also increased, due to which the crisis of their extinction has arisen. While on the one hand the forests are getting depleted, on the other hand pollution is also increasing continuously, which is causing negative changes in nature, and there are terrible consequences like global warming. In such a situation, World Wildlife Day is extremely important for the protection of nature and wildlife. India has been aware of the conservation
of wildlife since the beginning. The Government enacted the Wildlife (Protection) Act in 1972 to prevent wildlife crimes, curb poaching and to effectively curb the illegal trade of wildlife products. The main objective of this Act is to stop the illegal hunting of wildlife, and the trade of their biological remains such as meat, leather, etc. The Act lays emphasis on conservation of wild animals, birds and plants. It is illegal under this act to attempt to catch any wildlife, harming them. In addition, firing in the sanctuary, entry into the forest with weapons and cutting trees are also prohibited. The government amended the Wildlife (Protection) Act 1972 in January, 2003 with the aim of strengthening the law relating to wildlife. Under this, punishment and fine have been made more stringent.

“If you are not filled with overflowing love, compassion and goodwill for all creatures living wild in nature, You will never know true happiness.” -- Paul Oxton Conventionally speaking, ‘Wildlife’ refers to the wild or undomesticated species of animals and their habitats. However in the present time, this term takes into account all kinds of living organisms. ‘Wildlife Conservation’ today is a Global concern. Wildlife helps to balance the environment and keeps ecosystem functional. But owing to causes like climatic changes, hunting, deforestation, floods and draughts, some species are always at the risk of extinction.
This article is focused on ‘Marine life Conservation’. Marine life, that forms an integral part of wildlife. The oceans are one of the Earth’s greatest gifts to mankind. They are a huge source of oxygen and are extremely helpful in the processes of storing and capturing carbon dioxide. From providing fresh food to providing jobs to millions, oceans are a boon. But unfortunately, the current predicament of ocean life is not very bright, and sadly, this is mostly due to human intervention. Efforts are being put towards conservation across the world by various organizations, however more and continuous efforts are needed to bring about a real difference. APRIL 2021 - 007
Oceans are usually dumping sites for chemicals and sewage. These have toxic effect on marine life. Many aquatic animals are eating plastic found in oceans and dying from chocking or intestinal blockage. Global warming is yet another challenge. Overfishing, to abandoning waste into the oceans, everything is killing and damaging marine life. A solution to these ever growing issues must be found as quickly as possible before devastation happens. Oceans cannot withstand these negative changes that pollution, climate or human are causing, and neither can earth as a whole. Let’s look at some ways by which we can contribute to protect Marine life, remember, every small move counts:
1. Making safe, sustainable seafood choices 2. Using reusable plastic products 3. Using less fertilizers 4. Proper disposal of hazardous materials 5. Reducing energy usage 6. Spreading education on the topic of conservation Conservation and maintenance of biodiversity, we should make it our priority. Let’s pray we have more and more ocean species for future generation to know and see. As they say, ‘Let’s make world a better place to live!’ But this can happen only when we join hands in unison.

To make the only green blue live planet Earth biologically fit and balanced, to make the life cycle and life web intact, wildlife plays a major role. There are lots of things to learn from the wildlife. Their Unity, Corporation, we humans have to learn from them. They are united the share their food with others. Unless and until they are hungry, they do not hunt. They never pamper their young ones too much. The make their young ones go independently in their time. Beyond that they do not eat when they are not hungry. Though they don't have their sixth sense of identifying good and bad, right and wrong, they have their super sense organs and good instincts. To tell in short all this we have to learn from animals
We are so selfish and we want to lead a sophisticated life by killing animals for sport and for business. We use their skin, horns, trunk, tusk, wool, leather, ivory, skin, teeth and what not? For our luxury we selfishly kill them in a cold-blooded manner. If humans don't take care of the wildlife now, we will have to suffer a lot in future because wildlife help us to lead a happy life. Animal can live without humans but humans cannot live without animals and forest. In one- or other-way we humans are dependent on forest and animals. Gradually we have occupied their place, their habitant by building a lot of construction, apartments and finally the animals do not have any place to dwell and they come to human residential area. In fact, it is their place to live freely. But we cut the trees which is their shelter. That only helps them to balance the environment. Wildlife is very important in fact we are also a social animal. It is highly important to protect and conserve wildlife. Already so many animals, birds have got extinct due to several reasons. Again, such things should not happen. In earlier days in this precious earth half the portion was covered with forest, gradually it started to deplete and forest area is shrinking because of human activities. We started to encroach the forest area for our convenience. We not even think of that poor animals. They are also having their own life and it pains if we hurt them. Without any sort of sympathy, empathy we kill them for sports and business. This cruelty should be stopped immediately. Though many organizations are trying to save animals, sometimes it is beyond their level. Some incidents like killing, poaching animals really touch your heart and we shed bloody tears. We must have some sympathy towards the animals. We must conserve them at any cost.

“Mother, please let me sail out. It’s a fine sunny day and I want to soak the sun light.” Baby whale said. “You are too young to go out my baby. I can’t let you sail.” Mother whale refused. “But, my friends star fish, sea cow and other fishes are waiting for me. Please don’t do that let me go.” “By whose permission you have said yes to them? Did I give you permission?” Mother whale got angry. Baby whale got scared and started weeping. Its friends who were waiting outside heard the scolding of mother whale they also got scared and ran away leaving baby whale there. “See, my baby I am not your enemy but our life and our species are very limited now. You are the only hope of carrying our legacy how can I let you sail?” Mother whale said worriedly.
“Yes, I can understand your worries but I am an adult now. I can sense what is right and what is wrong and what can I do if our species are getting extinct that’s not my fault? Why should I not enjoy my happy days?” Baby whale said arrogantly. Mother whale slapped the baby because its behavior was very rude. The baby felt insulted and angrily said, “You are very bad mother, and I don’t want to leave here. I am now capable enough of taking care of myself, I don’t need you anymore. Good bye forever.” “Baby.. baby.. baby.. don’t go I am not allowing because I know how cruel this world is! Please don’t go I beg you please.” Mother whale cried loudly. The baby whale didn’t listen and went away.
APRIL 2021 - 019
Mother whale went behind it and search her baby but she couldn’t find. She came back disappointed and felt that she has done a big mistake of not telling her baby the real truth. The truth was so drastic that she couldn’t tell it. There was one oil ship which has killed the father of baby whale. The ship has spilled all the oils barrel into the ocean, the baby whale’s father was sailing outside and that oil was soaked by him and he was dead on the spot. Not only baby whale’s father but hundreds of other ocean species were killed by the spilling of oil barrels. That ship is still twirling around this ocean and killing the ocean animals that is why I was not letting baby whale out but it didn’t listen I pray to almighty that it will be safe. On the other side that baby whale was freely routing the ocean and enjoying the
sun light but alas! Its enjoyment is for limited time as that inhumane ship is coming and as usual it is spilling the oil barrels. The baby whale saw that and felt it was some food to eat, it swam there and drank it and died same as his father on the spot. The mother whale still searching her baby but now her baby is the food of humans. She understood that her baby was also dead just like its father. This ship was doing the business of sea food by killing the ocean animals through chemical oil barrels. Wildlife, ocean world, nature all this has equal rights just like the human has still we don’t understand and continue of killing this silent animals. Please save the wild life. They are the only animals who never complaints and demand.

Unsung Heroes No Longer - Part 4 A chat with Dr Vasanthi Umesh Kumar – Scientist , educator & Entrepreneur.
Dr. Vasanthi with art enthusiasts Education is one of the greatest gifts one can give to another human being. In that way, teaching is the noblest profession. A teacher not only imparts education but shares wisdom, courage to face life, and imparts moral values. Namaste India is very glad to have interviewed Dr Vasanthi – A teacher and a scientist by profession, a connoisseur of fine arts and one of the most positive ladies we have ever met. Prof Dr Vasanthi Umesh Kumar PhD, has over three decade teaching and research experience in various National and International Universities and Institutions. Her significant contributions have been in the field of Microbiology and Biotechnology. Students trained by Prof. Vasanthi have obtained managerial placements in Industry, research positions in IITs and Universities of USA, France and Sweden.
After retirement from the field of education, Dr Vasanthi is pursuing her passion for sewing and craftwork, promoting and supporting the community through the interactive platforms of social media. Her brand VASA have significantly gained attention in the social media, especially with kids and people of all age showing interests to learn sewing the traditional way. Dr Vasanthi starts with a note saying that she wanted to create responsible design solutions that are environment friendly and nurtured the creativity of people of all ages and made their work relevant and useful in the modern world. From a background of teaching, where she has interacted with a variety of students, parents, teachers and institute management professionals, Dr Vasanthi finds it easy to teach to kids and adults of all ages. Hailing from a larger family with 9 siblings, Dr Vasanthi found stiching and... APRIL 2021 - 024
sewing interests running in her blood. She recalls her childhood days where the ladies in the family sewed and stitched dresses for the kids. The brand VASA customises several eco-friendly, quality handcrafted fabric creations – from home décor products to personalised items like totes, sling bags, multipurpose pouches to kids products like eco-friendly fabric toys, personalised baby quilts and educational products like cloth book. VASA also focusses at one to one classes, workshops and online classes.
discovery, creativity, aspiration etc., of science and art towards their goals resulted in natural transformation and contributed to the success of VASA. I aimed to create a forum where everyone’s collective ideas could contribute to creating new work with traditional crafts. So VASA workshops were born.
Let us hear from Dr Vasanthi, about her experience in transition from a scientist to an artiste and entrepreneur. 1. How did this all start – From a laboratory scientist to a creative artist? We are 9 siblings and I am the last! My mother and my 4 elder sisters sew and also lovingly make dresses for me when I was a child as well as an adult. It was a family hobby and I used to sew different dresses and embroidery for my daughter during my hectic days of research and teaching. After retirement, when my granddaughter arrived I sewed dresses, quilts, dolls etc., for her. My daughter encouraged me furthermore and I began accomplishing my dream passion and in turn VASA, the brand was born. 2. What is the secret of Success for VASA? How were the initial days of VASA? While I was heading at various educational institutions, especially when I was with Bannariamman Institute of Technology, I was involved in various entrepreneurship development programmes and incubating young entrepreneurs for technology development. I am very proud to say that my daughter Sheetal, supported me and incited the spark towards my passion, the commonness in the traits viz., ...
Dr Vasanthi Umesh Kumar with her Art work
3. Getting attention from the present generation kids, where technology is on the domination, is not an easy thing. How do you manage to teach kids about the art of sewing and crafting? Kids are always amazing. I love the time spent with them. With the art of parenting and teaching, I find it not very difficult to work with them or make them concentrate. Because, it’s very natural for young kids to get distracted. But, the kids are clearer in thoughts and their wants. The onus lies on the adults, to realize their vision and guide them towards achieving them. 4. How do you manage to update yourself constantly, with your works and the technological advancements? APRIL 2021 - 025
“If you have a vision, move forward with positive attitude and believe in self to achieve it.” I believe in this saying. So I always keep myself open for learning. It is important to know that Success comes with learning and planning. Also, it’s important to invest focus and dedication on the work we do to taste success. Not
only as an entrepreneur but also as an educator and scientist, I tell myself to make the best use of any situation. We need to be open to changes as change is permanent. Only then, success is possible for everyone.
Gaanappriya Mohan Yogesh

OUR LOVE ON WILDLIFE Oh, the heart of lovely darkness, To hunt animals in the wildness: Eat bodies for life, not souls--Set yourself free to achieve goals;
Wildlife is a boon for all our doings, Life is what we are living, not sayings; Our love on woods is always holy--To save the world of nature, really!
Be a lion to involve in fight, A fox for making wrong to right; Fly as a bird by spreading wings, Food chain let us to stay in rings…
We are the truest animals in the world, There are plenty of tales to be told: The forest has wise old trees to see, Enjoy the life as a little honey bee…
Wildfire burns within our mind, Into the woods, we need to find: Love, happiness, and mystery--To wake up eternal spirits of history;

Wild Teachers' Life We are talking about Wildlife... Their extinct... and all the ins and outs of them. But in this Pandemic condition... Our own kith and kins lives are at wild... Nobody notices that... Under darkness even now. Yes, they are the well-educated poor people…Matric school teachers on our doorsteps. Having a passion for teaching, they spent lots of money from their parent. But not having any hope of getting a minimum wage like labour.
knows. Government teachers draw a minimum salary of Rs.25, 000 to the maximum of 1.5 lakhs even... But at the same time, the same work-loaded matric teachers... The minimum only Rs.2000 and the maximum will be Rs.50, 000s .This maximum is only at high-earning schools... only. In rural schools, they are getting salaries less than their aayas and drivers. You may ask why the hell you are slaves at this amount of salaries. And why don't you people fight for this? Very good questions. If anyone opens their mouth, they will be dismissed and in their place, a cheap salaried youngster easily entered. No value for experience here. So many of them become Deaf and dumb. TET exam becomes the villain for the most experienced lives. Only the current set of people could cope up with the hard syllabus and question paper. They used to be teachers and no other go for them. Now in this ridiculous corona period, only half of the salary given and some of the school's that even not given. The recorded reason for that is no fee collection.
Samacheer Kalvi, a wonderful system to give the same quality education to the students of Tamilnadu. Superb system and all under one roof... State board control.
So the solution to this problem must be the government should take immediate action to determine the minimum salary to survive and makes a strict order to insist the managements to give that salary. And the change of mindset of the teachers to stand firm for their minimum salaries.
But why the hell they are maintaining the matric name till today... God only

The battle of domesticating with animals goes on unchecked, with more death rates.
in beautifying the earth. No less than us.
Samaritans venture into forests,
If you claim to be lover of pets,
claiming to save them,
prove it by setting them free.
from their natural enemies,
Make them fearless on us.
end up enslaving them for life. When captured and sheldered, they loose natural instincts.
What if animals start praying and their prayers answered one day ?
Why provide them with food ?
Time to think dear mankind.
They can find their own.

I am not a carnivorous or man eater! Then why they became a cheater! They cut the trees to extend the city! But they didn't realise and hadn't pity! I smelled the pine's smell in the south! Pineapple burst inside my mouth!
R.Kavitha Ramachandran Writer I Poetess Dindigul
INHUMANE DEMONS! (Self Elegy) Oh! My dear unborn child! My pain is not very mild! All because of the bomb! Now you are safe in my Womb! They put inside the pine! It's the mistake of mine! Hunger leads me to entered the village! They feared that I spoiled the tillage! Killing with food is a deadly sin! Oh God! See their grin! People had accupied our habitat! Sometimes they worship me God's diplomat!
It had spoiled my hymn and tusk! Food pipe was irritated by the husk! I saw a bit of my mouth and tongue thrown in the air! By the Sudden distress; My eyes are filled with tear! I was throbbing and shivering in severe ache! But I did't get anger with that people's bake! I didn't try to attack them as a revenge! Because avenge!
it's
a
animal's
nonviolentic
I went into river and dip my hymn to reduce my pain! Is this cruelty gave them any gain! Burning crackers or electric fencing may have some justice! This is the worst betrayal in the universe!
Food in the forest was not enough for me!
My only thought is about you my dear!
Carrying you made me so tired!
I could feel your body shrink in fear!
Hungry stomach was the reason for the sake of fired!
I could hear your father's sorrowful trumpet! APRIL 2021 - 045
INHUMANE DEMONS! (Self Elegy My legs are disturbed by the moving Limpet! But I couldn't reply him because I lost my vocal cords!
But the time is up; nothing to do! Come my child; let's go to the heaven! If you have a birth in Earth;
I feel my inner lips are paining like screwing by swords!
Don't believe these kind of human beings!
I can't eat anything with this wounding muzzle!
They are the most dangerous animals in the world!
I could feel my soul's farewell! I pray God to save me for your survival!
By greedy and cruelty they devastating the nature!
I was waited for the miracle's arrival! Till the last moment; I gently tapped my Uterus; My damaged hymn is feeling the heartbeat of yours! I can understand the forest officials attempts; To get me out from water with the trained kumkies!
Let's get permission from God; We would have Come back to the forest; And put the board! Danger " Human zone"! Beware of the "Inhumane Demons".

Gaanappriya Mohan Yogesh Bio scientist/Poetess / Bilingual Writer
There is a parallel world of undreamt possibilities behind the visible world, a reality mainly unknown to us, from where growth, healing, and insight emerge. Humans are learning to co-operate with the supreme powers to undergo healing and enjoy bliss. By discovering our creative process and sacred life force through thinking, spiritual, and consciousness work, we connect with the supreme power that controls us through Art, music, theatre, and dance. Hailing from a country where the artists mingle spirituality and art forms and steering it towards healing, Indian artists always aspire to spread positivity and cheer to humanity. The foremost reason artists create, and the rest of us value their Art is that Art forms a priceless living bridge between our minds' everyday psychology and humanity's universal spirit. Karthika Vaidyanathan is a Carnatic musician and a playback singer. She always believes that Art heals and life is part of the music and not the other way around. Her website, https://www.karthikavaidyanathan.com rightly portrays – ART HEALS!
A true and dedicated artist in every sense, happily married to another artist, Mr. Satish Raghunathan, Karthika continues to spread positivity through 'Swarakshara,' where she teaches music to people of all ages.
As the whole world just celebrated the celestial night of Mahashivarathri, Karthika and team released their latest production - Mahadeva. Mahadeva is a track that celebrates Lord Shiva and his prowess. This production has been gaining popularity among music lovers over social media. Mahadeva - it's a reflection of Karthika's spiritual belief. There is surrender, emptiness, hope, bliss, intensity, and everything... APRIL 2021 - 049
she believes spirituality is. According to her, "It's not just the music, dance or any of the creative expertise you see in the video. They are gateways for the Art to be in its fullest expression. It's beautiful to witness how it takes shape from nothing to what it is. It's an experience, it's life!"
One of the finest productions ever, Mahadeva has Sinoj and Amosh as the giants behind the unique visual scape we experience in Mahadeva. Ranjeev Radha harmonized the artistic touch with his directorial inputs. To add beauty to the visual scape, the artists' dance steals our hearts. Sreejith, the rock star choreographer, is the man
behind those heart-throbbing moves. He and his dancers' team have weaved an impactful visual scape to all the Shiva admirers out there. Cheers to Sreejith and students of Dancity - Academy of Dance for your passion and hard work. Satish, the perfect life partner of Karthika, stands as the core of Swarbhakti. Satish has arranged some beautiful vocal harmonies for Mahadeva. With Nikhilram TP as Flautist and as Chandrajith made the perfect Rhythm Arrangements & Percussions, Satish produced a wonderful music with A group of singers who were so keen on understanding the music making the tracking a delightful experience. Recorded at Sreejesh’s AuO2 Studio, Sri Vidya Studio (Chennai) and Amala Media House (Calicut), the best spaces to work with world-class equipment, wonderful ambiance, and lovely technicians, the track Mahadeva is all ours to watch and relish. You can watch the video at https://youtu.be/Entw83oFAck . Let us support artists and let all the art forms thrive.

Sapna Nagar Bharadwaj Educator
"The Real Challengers of the World " Teachers, the Unsung Heroes of education with low pay and little job recognition in many countries it is because the society has never given the honor it should have got. In the world where all are praising the Healthcare workers around the globe risk their lives on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic, hidden heroes are working quietly on the frontlines tending to the well-being of children. Most of the teachers are day and night trying to continue the teaching-learning process even in this period of crisis. I feel very much distressed when I have to come across the statement like 'private school are doing this to take out fees from the students 'I want to ask I want such person's that do they have any idea how much pain a teacher undergoes to prepare for a single online lecture. They are taking two-three lectures just keep their the teaching-learning process goes on. Everybody has neglected this section of society.
It is because society has never given the honor it should have got whatever a person becomes in his life there is always teacher(s)who had always made his path easier, there are many sleepless nights of a teacher which a teacher had undergone for the success of his student. So being a teacher I want to congratulate the real solicitous of the society and students across the globe, trying to give their best for maintaining the progress of the nation, so next time when you say something about teachers do think of it if teachers are removed from society what will the society look like. I thank every teacher across the globe for their selfless service towards the betterment of mankind and at last, I just want to say, Real heroes don't wear caps or carry swords on their back but load and responsibility of keeping you and society and everyone else around them safe.

K.VASANTHAKUMAR M.Sc.,B.Ed.,D.T.Ed., I B T Assistant In Mathematics, Panchayat Union Middle School, Uralikkal, Valparai, Tamilnadu
The reason why mathematics is not a preferred subject for many students today is simply the inability to understand ..!
the people that they will not teach better education in government schools through their teaching activities.
But it is in the hands of the teacher who teaches them the belief that they can learn mathematics in a simple way.
But, their talents do not come to the outside world.
An Excellent teacher is one who knows what to tell his students and how to tell it. K.Vasanthakumar, a Government school Mathematics teacher, understands this and teaches mathematics in a simple way that can be understood by students from all walks of life without thinking of it as a difficult subject. He says if teachers have clarity on what to teach students it has nothing to do with the school, the curriculum and the success of the students. Government school in our country, especially if the Tamil way of education will not benefit the children. There are government school teachers like K.Vasanthakumar who destroy the subconscious mindset of...
K.Vasanthakumar is working as a Mathematics Teacher in Panchayat Union Middle School, Uralikkal Estate, Valparai, Coimbatore District. He has been working as a competent teacher in Government school for the last 23 years. It is rare for children from economically backward families to come to school to study ..! Children who come to study overcoming difficulties also face many difficulties in the school curriculum. We are well aware of the state of the public school. Teacher K.Vasanthakumar found a way to teach the lesson to the students who rarely come, who can remember well and learn easily if taught in a simple way. Knowing that memorization was of no use, APRIL 2021 - 054
he found a new way to do it. He composes mathematical songs, memorizes songs and injects mathematical ideas. Various awards, including the Tamil Scholar Anna Award and the Poet Laureate Award, have been presented in recognition of the best use of poetry by students. He has been teaching students in a simple process a variety of disciplines including equations, theorems, geometry, scales that confuse everyone from 6th to 8th grade students, starting with formula, addition, subtraction, multiplication. "It is noteworthy that K.Vasanthakumar Teacher has received the Global Teacher Award 2020 on behalf of Tamil Nadu out of 110 countries participating for teaching creativity". Teacher K.Vasanthakumar has taken videos of the simple method of teaching students and uploaded them on social networking sites including WhatsApp. Many have expressed their appreciation and encouragement for this. After that K. Vasanthakumar started a youtube channel called VALPARAI VASANTH MATHS BT and uploaded videos that teach simple math. So far more than 50 videos have accumulated on that channel. He continues to post simple accounts of basic accounts. His specialty is being awarded the Certificate of Appreciation on behalf of NEHRDO for the high number of students who have participated and succeeded in the NMMS and Olympiad examinations. The mathematical processes taught by K.Vasanthakumar teacher in a simple manner have been published in the form of WhatsApp, website and youtube video. Let's be intimidated by Math. But the revolutionary who innovates in it. He is good at teaching music without whipping up Mathematical concepts and teaching math by singing and squeezing. A teacher is a person who works with a sense of commitment to what is charitable and dedicated to it.
Although Formulea has evolved from traditional Poetry to innovative poetry to Haiku, Mathematics has become one of the most popular Formulea among students. The one who changed it and brought the difficult math to the students in a simple way. Corona has also been innovating with students through cognitive education. He has mastered mathematics through online education. He uses his blog to write mathematical ideas that are useful not only for his students but also for other students. Introducing innovations in learning and teaching them in a playful manner with accessories. He is doing his job well as an innovative teacher who innovates books.

Gunwant Singh Hanji satsrikaal guys so here I won this amazing best food blogger trophy I have been doing blogging since July 2019 and having around 11k + followers till now would be very happy if I will get more and good audiance thankyou APRIL 2021 - 059
One fine day in 2019, I was browsing through instagram, came across some food pictures and was amazed to see food presented in such an artistic way. So, I decided to give it a try and started posting my food pics on instagram and Facebook and got a wonderful response from my family and friends. They all liked the way I presented and garnished the food. Many of them suggested that I start a food blog. Mystery_.flavours is the name I started liking the whole process of cooking the dish, presenting it, garnishing it and finally photographing it. Here is a boy who was never ever interested in photography earlier, started clicking pictures of food and it not only surprised everyone else but me too! I started clicking food pictures and styled it in a very creative way. It was as if the hidden talent, that I was unaware of, came to light. To be honest, it was a vent out for my creativity. After giving a thought for a while, I decided to step into the world of blogging. I was not aware of how to start a blog, edit pictures or post a recipe. It took me a while to understand everything and I realized one thing - blogging is not going to be as easy as it sounds. But I was game for it as it gave me the solace and also kept me occupied while giving a nice platform for my creativity.
After lots of hardships, ups and downs I finally reintroduced and came back with my website Hetal Kamdar. My website has a collection of over 150 recipes I am also passionate about sketching and paintings that reflect in my art section. My love for travel reflects on my travel stories and blogs. What I Love About Blogging It was purely out of my passion for cooking, writing and my skills for presenting food in an artistic way that I indulged into food styling, food photography, recipe developing and finally dived into the world of blogging. My blog is liked and appreciated by many and finally, things have changed and in a great way! Blogging is a full-time job and it’s your own baby. You are the boss and that is what I love about it the most. The high points in my journey have been the credibility, trust, name and fame that I have earned from my readers who love, adore my work, follow my recipes and read and take tips from my travel blogs. I believe if you work hard and follow your dreams, one-day, luck will surely favour you. I have won many cooking, recipe, food photography and food styling. Gungawat singh My Blogger Journey Blogging has actually been a roller coaster ride for me. I have self-learned a lot during my journey as a food and travel blogger. Right from cooking new dishes, to photography, styling, creating my own food props and boards, editing pictures and finally posting it on the blog - what started off as a passion has eventually become a profession. And now I won best food blogger awards from #saddapunjab Thankyou to my blogger friends who supported me always . Thankyou so much @mystery_.flavours APRIL 2021 - 060

APPRECIATION Every piece of action needs an appreciation, Whether big as a mountain or small as an atom, Every soul deserves it, it’s an admiration, Should get this whole heartedly from the bottom. Where can I get appreciation? Do your work more than expected and get it free, Be perfect and do perfect is the slogan, It’s the other way to get and don’t plea. Try to see good in others to praise,like a bioscope, Be broad minded to praise others,kindly behold, Don’t hesitate to praise others be bold, Every soul serves it’s purpose in this globe. Money is not needed to appreciate God's creation, Do it as far as possible,at any cost (effort)salvation.

Bubble Communication celebrates 10 years of “Bringing Limelight” Mumbai: This year marks the 10th anniversary of Bubble, an integrated marketing communications agency based in Mumbai, India. Over its course, the company has grown out of a PR agency’s typical image, and now is catering to full 360-degree services in regards with public relations, advertising, social media management, celebrity management and crisis communications. Its clients include MNCs, SMEs, fashion labels, B-town celebrities, NGOs and more. There have been many noteworthy highlights in Bubble’s 10-year journey that have contributed to the huge success that the agency is today. Starting from a small office in Mumbai and 2 Clients – Classic Marble & ZZ Architects, today the Agency boasts of 3 offices in Mumbai, Ahmedabad & Bangalore and presence in 27 cities; 100+ Clients, 500+ Events, 100+ Creative campaigns, PR Coverage worth 10+ Billion for numerous clients. Right from commencement, the Founders were clear, a set up was to created for complete communication needs under one roof. Starting from providing customised solutions to Viacom 18, YES Bank, Piramal Healthcare, UTV, Tata Housing and others in the form of workshops, Bubble also focused on verticals like Public Relations, Digital Marketing, Social Media & Influencer management becoming a one-stop-agency for all marketing communication needs. Speaking on the same, Jasvinder Kataria, Chief Manufacturing Officer, Domestic Textiles, Grasim Industries shared, “Internationally several boutique agencies have been doing a great job for decades but back here in India, when we hired services from Bubble, the concept of a boutique agency was yet at a nascent stage. Generally, we tend to work with different agencies for different services but using a single umbrella agency has, reduced the multi people coordination that was required earlier and the entire communication too, gets streamlined.” The agency has striven to do its best for its clients by harnessing modern methodologies from time to time and tailor-making strategies to suit the client’s precise requirement. “GALF is a trusted wellness brand for global corporates and communities. We needed brand managers and communication partners that were equally passionate about the cause and creating content for our products and services, in turn helping us share our ideas with a larger audience and I am truly ecstatic to say that we found that in Bubble. For us, it was never about selling but developing that trust factor with our customers. The number of corporate clients and consequently the subscribers, we have today, stands testimony to the success we have achieved so far,” said Amit Vasistha, Founder and CEO of corporate wellness aggregator GALF. Be it Real Estate & allied businesses, FMCG, Banking & Finance. Education, Sports, Entertainment & Fashion or Individual Personalities, Bubble believes that marketing themselves is a pre requisite for each one. “I started my career as a Journalist followed by a marketing professional, so the objective of starting bubble was, to be able to offer solutions that I believe were right and yet unique. It seems like just yesterday, but the fact is, the journey has been marvellous, more so like a roller coaster and I really like to say a big thank you to all our Clients & our Employees. We celebrate our anniversary while the world is trying to recover from the pandemic that hit us last year, but I believe, change is the only constant and thus, we adapted our offerings too, to the changing times and shifted a great deal to digital from offline,” said Aarti Notiyal, Director, Bubble Communication. The finest quality in a partner is adaptation and that is what bubble strongly believes in with changing times and trends. A stalwart in the Indian stone industry for 2 decades and now, Director, Marmo Classic, Dubai, Subodh Shah, says “Our association with Bubble goes

way back, right from the inception of the agency. For us as well it was a new beginning – our engineered brand – Kalingastone was launched in India. They have come a long way and I wish them all the very best for their future endeavours.” While delivering top-notch services, the agency also kept its commitment to ethical standards and doing its bit for the community. Bubble has partnered with several NGOs like HWARF, NGO Vishwas, Swar Aalap, Divya Prabha to contribute towards the betterment of the society. Aneel K Murarka from Ample Mission says, “Being a Philanthropist, numerous of my initiatives need to be made aware to the common man by means of the media, in order to get the message across so that many more are motivated to join the movement. And having a partner with right strategy and empathy is a blessing; which we did find in bubble for several of our campaigns be it “Honouring Acid Attack Victims” or giving the due “Respect to Transgender Community”. Bubble constantly puts in effort, to remain connected with the community and initiated one such series on account of Women’s Day this March. Named ‘Atta Girl’ featured strong and independent women belonging to different fields of work, Author Deepa Rajani, Activiist Christine Swaminathan, Dr.Sunita Dube, Actors Hunar Hali & Gouri Tonnk amongst others.
